Many widget classes need to run substantial initialization code after
they have been setup from GML. With this change, an
initialize_fallibles() function is called if available, allowing the
initialization to be invoked from the GML setup automatically. This
means that the GML-generated creation function can now be used directly
for many more cases, and reduces code duplication.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

There's the "font_type" property which currently only handles
fixed-width yes/no, so until we get a proper font type enum and
associated enum property, this is better to use from GML instead of a
special case in the GML compiler.
Since Core::Object properties are really only used by GML now that the
Inspector is long gone, there's no need for these to pollute
Core::Object.
This patch adds a new GUI::Object class to hold properties, and makes
it the new base class of GUI::Window, GUI::Widget and GUI::Layout.
The "instantiate an object by name" mechanism that GML uses is also
hoisted into GUI::Object as well.
I had to add a set_title(String) helper function for ImageEditor because
TabWidget requires it. This is a temporary fix and will be handled in
subsequent commit.
This just calls Layout::try_add_spacer(), but saves you having to access
the Widget's Layout directly.
We verify that the Widget has a Layout, since it would be a programming
error if we tried to do so without one.
The existing `load_from_gml()` methods look the same as before from the
outside. Inside though, they now forward to `try_load_from_gml()` which
returns Error when things go wrong. It also now calls the `try_create()`
factory method for Objects instead of the `construct()` one.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
with WindowInput{Preempted,Restored} Events and allow Widgets to save
the state of their focus preemption. As of now, only Popups will
preempt input and trigger these events.
This check happens very often in LibGUI code. 25% of time spent
layouting the emoji input dialog was wasted on RTTI. Adding a simple
fast_is<Widget>() melts almost all of that away.
Currently, LibGUI modifies the Ctrl+Alt+Space key event to instead
represent the emoji that was selected through EmojiInputDialog. This is
limited to a single code point.
For multiple code point emoji support, individual widgets now set a hook
to be notified of the emoji selection with a UTF-8 encoded string. This
replaces the previous set_accepts_emoji_input() method.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This function is intended to propagate layout changes upwards in the
widget hierarchy. Widgets that can know what to do with this
information without causing a full layout invalidation (i.e. just
because one of their child widgets changed layout/size, doesn't
necessairily mean that they have to change their layout/size) can
override this and prevent a full relayout and redraw.
Effective sizes are the ones that are actually to be used for layout.
They are just their respective propertys value, or the value returned
by the calculated_<min/preferred>_size, when the respective property
is set to shrink or fit.
The "calculated" values in turn are specific to the widget. Container
widgets for example can calculate their values depending on their
layout and child widget requirement.
Simple widgets like labels and buttons can for example calculate their
values based upon their current text.
Instead of having widget/window/application create a shortcut from a
KeyEvent within their find methods, we'll just pass them a Shortcut
so that the "where to search" logic doesn't need to be duplicated
for different Shortcut types.
It also lets us handle invalid Shortcut rejection at a higher level,
with most things letting the caller be responsible for not searching
for actions with an invalid shortcut.
This commit introduces a couple of connected changes that are hard to
untangle, unfortunately:
- Parse GML into the AST instead of JSON
- Change the load_from_json API on Widget to load_from_gml_ast
- Remove this same API from Core::Object as it isn't used outside of
LibGUI and was a workaround for the object registration detection;
by verifying the objects we're getting and casting we can remove this
constraint.
- Format GML by calling the formating APIs on the AST itself; remove
GMLFormatter.cpp as it's not needed anymore.
After this change, GML formatting already respects comments :^)
